Rotary District 4860 Annual Conference

The Rotary District 4860 is composed of the clubs in 2 provinces: Mendoza and its northern neighbor, San Juan. They had their 2006 district conference May 12-14 in the small town of San Rafael in the southern part of Mendoza Province. The town supports a lot of adventure tourism in a nearby canyon with a great river for rafting.
The conference itself was located in downtown at the Belgrano Club. From the presentations, I learned about a few of their current projects, including medical teams to repair cleft pallets in disadvantaged countries, wheel chair donations, and water cleaning and access projects.
They also presented all the incoming ambassadorial scholars, including myself, a GSE Team from Australia, and a YEP group composed of high school students from the U.S. and Europe.
